Il devrait va s'engager avec Montpellier.

Akor, 23, is set to soon be announced as a new signing of French Ligue 1 club Montpellier.
“You will ever be in my heart,” he said through a public speaker and afterwards the tears came down.
Lillestrom are regarded among the most partisan in Norway.
Former Flying Eagles striker Akor has been rewarded for his awesome form this season after he fired 15 goals in as many matches.
He joined Lillestrom last season as a free agent after several years in the Norwegian second division with Sogndal.
Despite a shoulder injury that needed surgery, he finished as Lillestrom top scorer last season with eight goals.
